grouper groupie You're fighting a grouper groupie

This is a grouper who follows the ice skates around, providing companionship and doing various odd jobs. I can't go into detail on that, since this is a family game. Let's just say they're very, very good friends, and leave it at that, okay?

Hit Message(s):

It blows a kiss at an ice skate, then smacks you with its tail fin. Ouch! Oof! Eek! Ugh! Argh! Oof! Eek!

It says, "I'm not a band-aid, I'm a groupie!" and smacks you with a fin. Ouch! Ow! Argh! Ow! Ooh! Ooh! Eek!

It mistakes you for an ice skate and kisses you on the neck, leaving a painful hickey. Eek! Ouch! Oof! Ouch! Argh! Argh! Argh!

Critical Hit Message:

It calls over a couple of ice skates to beat the stuffing out of you. You didn't even know you *had* stuffing in you, but it's all gone now. Ugh! Ouch! Ow! Oof! Ugh! Ugh! Ouch! Ow!

Miss Message(s):

It tries to smack you with a fin, but misses. Looks like that wasn't its lucky fin.

It tries to kiss you, but you point out you're not an ice skate.

It blows a kiss at a nearby ice skate. You avert your eyes.

Fumble Message:

It starts to attack, but finds out it's been traded to the roller skates for a case of beer. It's so demoralized that it can't bring itself to attack this round. (FUMBLE!)
